| Who's the best rhythm guitarist (or favorite, as this is what it'll inevitably be)?
I would say:
Max Cavalera James Hetfield (go listen to "Trapped Under Ice" and see what I mean) | |

Jon Schaffer Oscar Dronjak** Scott Ian Jeff Loomis (His leads are amazing as well) Metal Mike Chlasciak Dimebag (His riffs are amazing) Zakk Wylde (Again a better rhythm player then lead IMO) | |

| Jimmy Page - I can think of few other players that could handle the breadth of stylistic changes the way he could...equally brilliant on acoustic and electric.
Jimi Hendrix - When people think of Hendrix, they always focus on the solos...which is a mistake because his chordal vocabulary was staggering. His rhythm work is still hard as hell to play to this day, again a player that was comfortable integrating many different styles of music into his own personal conception.
Malcolm Young - The machine that's kept AC/DC running for all these years.
Robert Fripp - Good luck trying to figure out the chords this dude plays... |

| James Hetfield is an amazing rhythm guitarist indeed, and also one of my favourites.
I agree with Detuned on Malcolm Young for the exact same reason. | |

| Detuned you hit the nail on the coffin with Hendrix. Although I am not a fan at all really, his rhythms are amazing.
